It's Over!

The House and Senate have both passed war funding bills and sent them to Bush. I'm disappointed because this means that the war will still be going strong in January 2009 when the next president takes office. As Jinchi pointed out in a comment, that means that another thousand American soldiers will be dead along with thousands of Iraqis. At the same time, I also feel forgiving toward the Democratic leadership. I believe they performed well and hope they learned some lessons that they can apply to their confrontation with the White House. I'm sure it's coming sooner or later.

Hillary and Obama voted "no." No surprise there.
